God I love dirty low rent scalers. Too many box stock shiny garage queens our there, both 1:1 and scale! As above, the only thing off the top of my head that would make this more scale (on the same lines as the cracked paint on the propane tank) is if the camper didn't fit the bed so well...total redneck heaven (remembering my uncle's 1:1 work!).

Great job!

Oh, crap, I got competition now! Better get going on this interior.

3-burner cooktop (aka 5x11 plastic bushings), pink foam countertop sprayed to look like Formica, balsa interior panels (a real bitch to fit once the shell is all glued up), inside grille for the AC and some cabinets. Also replaced the door window so you can see all the goodies.

Made a foam bench seat but haven't painted it yet.

All the work made me thirsty so I had a few beers.

Still need to finish off the window openings, paint up the seat, make a table and a bed, and then detail the thing.

Where in Ohio are you located? Must be a secret town where the days have 48 hours instead of 24 because I don't know where you get the time for all the incredible builds you come up with.

LMAO..!!!!, Or mabey even a small little "Dented" section at the top front, like you accidentally drove thru the drive-thru, and remembered the camper on the back at the LAST possible second..!!!!
That would be SO cool..!!!! BTW- your Propane tank is the SHIZ..!!!!!!!!!!

It's a long way from done. I'm having way too much fun with this thing.

I know somebody mentioned orange and brown plaid:

Don't sell the house just yet. There's some things that you'll miss.

Like a proper toilet

Could use a fridge (what's more hillbilly than stickers on the fridge?), new tires, and an opinion of Chevys:

try two parts Gorilla Glue and one part water. should be close to scale expanding foam. this would look slick on the outside perimeter of the ac!

It's a free ticket to Redneck Wonderland!

Fridges are a perfect place for stickers, as are desks, tables, your S.O.'s chest (or back, depending on what the sticker says)...
